GREAT BRITAIN.
Lorroc*, July 16.--difidn - whr.--Ift the
House of Commons to-night, the consid
eration of the Irish Church Bill was con
tinued. Mr. Gladstone approved the
amendment granting ; half a million of
pounds for private endowments made
prior to 1616, but -moved to disagree to
,the provisions for the continuation of the
Ulster grants. •
Mr. D'lsraeli' thought the proposal of
the Linda reasonable.
Mr. Stafford Northoote thought Mr.
Gladstone's proposal would convert
Established Church into a voluntary
missionary church. -He asked or anent
of justice and expediency that the Glebes
should be left. - .
Roundel' Palmer supported the Lords'
amendniant. • ' • " •
The amendment granting half a...mil
lion pounds for private endownients was
agreed. to.. • • •
Tneamendment. -containing...the-Ulster ,
grants was rejected by /146 t0240,,,, Th e
announcement was cheered 'trent the
ministerial benches._
Mr. D'lsraell intimated was jot_
. necessary forthe House to divide on the
other amendments except that of post
poning the disposition of the surplus
funds. •
Mr. Gladstone moved to disagree, and
`Mr. D'lsraeli supported toe Lords'
amendment. He thought the Govern
ment plans not matured, and thar they
' ought to be left for future consideration.
Mr. Bright said the distribution of the
Burping was 'a different matter. the
. Government had made minute inquiry as
' to the suitable distinction bf in..vme
atia
ing frtftri the sorpitisti': He bad no inter
, est other than any member of the House,
or contrary to the' wishes of the Irish
• people. Faery,. eve acknowledged that
the money was the property of the Irish,
and ought to be appropriated to the ben
`• Olt of - .lreland. > This plan: was open to
t'.the least objection. To leave the goes
ti on open would only pave- the, way for
Intare embarrassment. H e appealed to
the House not to put an obstacle in the
way :of the, passage of the bill.
r The amendment of the Lords was then
rejected by k. 90 against 2111. Greg: cheers
greeted the result. , - -
The debate on the amended Irish
Church bill was continued in the Corn
'poops until a late hour this , morning.
After the rejection of the amendment
proposed by the Peers, Mr. TYLsraell took
the - floor and spoke at some length. - He
regretted the repudiation of the amend
, ments adopted in the House of Lords.
The Church was not the question at issue
at, the late elections. He thought the
agreement of the Lords to send the bill
the second time was an act of magna
nimity, considering the Majority unfa
vorable to the measure, and the agree
ment was only given under the under
standing that Commons would consider
• the amendments in a conciliatory spirit.
He could not understand how the course
the Government had taken could be re
; coneited to the expectations held out to
the House of Lords.
Mr. Gladstone replied, saying that the
promise giVen to the House of Lords was
that the amendments which could be
proved would.be respectfully considered,
• and he maintained that the, pledge had
not been violated. He had conceded
much in deferent° to the Lords, and had
fulfilled, more than fulfilled, the pledge
which he had given. (Great" cheering.)
Hei - was certalu that ifany harm had been
done to tne Chhreh,,it was bythose who

against the degrading.disheartening , con
victions and express arihumble and con
fident expectation., Though, time and
trial intervened, the members of ' the,
cgurch will regard the day of the passage
of this act ss the day •of their religious
•
regeneration.
Right Hon. Gathorne Hardy then took
the floor.' He tot 'islited AlpiappOirtnatle

Dlitraeli's statement, that John Bright
